It is always nice to use stuff that has ibm backing and likely has at least a professor or two and some grad students helping out on it. I had never heard of OpenAFS before your email. I will have to look into it a bit. My stuff would hopefully make it nice if you didn't want to change your os, or if you just wanted to make File::Redundant a small part of a much larger overall system. The biggest overheard I have seen is having to do readilnks. Maybe I could get around them somehow. I will have to draw up some uml or something to show how my whole system works. Earl
